There was a need for new means and measures to get a feasible solution for the individual, the guidance services, the training providers, the future employers, as well as the institutions and organisations at national or regional level, being responsible for training and employment. Experiences and recommendations from transnational projects and initiatives indicate that a structured aggregation of educational attainments is profitable for the individual, the training providers and for all stakeholders related to the employment market.Skillsbank is designed towards improving career guidance and recognition of prior learning towards individuals that need advice related to their further career. Individuals can define their aggregated skills and competences towards matrixes of qualifications and occupational profiles. This will meet the needs of people on the brink of being excluded from working life, migrant workers or those trying to enter new jobs in a changing employment market.
